Content: Definition, Examples

 

A prepositional phrase is a group of words that begins with a preposition, ends with a noun or pronoun, and may also include any modifiers of that noun or pronoun.

A prepositional phrase is a group of words, which begins with a preposition and ends with a noun pronoun or noun phrase called its complement.

For example:

  • She walked to the store. (The preposition is “to” and the prepositional phrase is “to the store.”)
  • The cat is on the roof. (The preposition is “on” and the prepositional phrase is “on the roof.”)
  • The book on the desk belongs to me. (The preposition is “on” and the prepositional phrase is “on the desk.”)
  • The car drove over the bridge.
  • She sat beside her best friend at the movie theater.
  • The flowers in the vase are dying.
  • I’m going to the beach with my family this weekend.
  • The dog ran through the park.

  • The child crawled under the table to hide.
  • He’s studying for his exam at the library.
  • The plane flew over the mountains.
  • The cat slept on top of the warm blanket.

Prepositional phrases can function as adjectives, adverbs, or nouns within a sentence.

  • The car with the broken windshield is in the garage. In this sentence, the prepositional phrase “with the broken windshield” is acting as an adjective, modifying the noun “car.” It tells us more information about the car, specifically what condition it’s in.
  • The book on the shelf is mine. In this sentence, the prepositional phrase “on the shelf” is acting as an adjective, telling us which book is being referred to.
  • The girl with the red dress is my friend. In this sentence, the prepositional phrase “with the red dress” is acting as an adjective, describing the girl’s appearance.
  • The student with the highest score gets an award. In this sentence, the prepositional phrase “with the highest score” is acting as an adjective, describing the student’s achievement.
  • The man in the black suit is the CEO of the company. In this sentence, the prepositional phrase “in the black suit” is acting as an adjective, describing the man’s clothing.

As adverbs:

  • She ran to the store quickly. In this sentence, the prepositional phrase “to the store” is acting as an adverb, telling us where the subject ran to.
  • He completed the task with precision. In this sentence, the prepositional phrase “with precision” is acting as an adverb, describing how the task was completed.
  • The baby slept through the night peacefully. In this sentence, the prepositional phrase “through the night” is acting as an adverb, telling us for how long the baby slept.
  • The team won the game by playing hard. In this sentence, the prepositional phrase “by playing hard” is acting as an adverb, telling us how the team won the game.
  • She drove to the beach with her friends. In this sentence, the prepositional phrase “with her friends” is acting as an adverb, telling us who the subject drove with.

As nouns:

  • Before the party is the time to prepare. In this sentence, the prepositional phrase “Before the party” is acting as a noun, functioning as the subject of the sentence.
  • He’s going to the park for a walk. In this sentence, the prepositional phrase “to the park” is acting as a noun, functioning as the object of the preposition “to.”
  • After the concert is the time to meet the band. In this sentence, the prepositional phrase “After the concert” is acting as a noun, functioning as the subject of the sentence.
  • The chef with the most experience got the job. In this sentence, the prepositional phrase “with the most experience” is acting as a noun, functioning as the subject complement, or predicate nominative, of the sentence.
  • She went to the store for some milk. In this sentence, the prepositional phrase “to the store” is acting as a noun, functioning as the object of the preposition “to.”

  1. Topic: The Use of the Dictionary, Page 129

Content: Definition, Structure Dictionary work 

A dictionary is a book that gives a list of the words of a language in alphabetical order and explains what they mean or gives a word for them in a foreign language:e.g a French- English dictionary.

 

A common dictionary typically has following structure.

  1. Word entry i.e the word to be explained is written showing  its breakdown into syllables e.g. dic-tion-ary
  2. Transcription: the word is transcribed using phonetic symbols in order  to show how it should be pronounced e.g. dictionary/ dikʃƏnri/ 
  3. The stress is indicated through the placement of a mark beside the top of the symbol which begins the syllable which carries the primary stress. It is placed at the bottom of the symbol which begins the syllable which carries the secondary stress / dikʃƏnri/
  4. The word class is also entered e.g. different /difƏrenʃI/ noun, adjective.This shows the word can be used as a noun or as an adjective .

The use of numbering e.g. 1,2,3 shows the various levels of meaning into which a word can be put. e,g. the word “difficult” can mean.

  1. not easy 
  2. full of problems 
  3. (people) not easy to please 
  1. The variety of (Br E) British English, North American English (N.A.M.E) or Zealand English (NZE)can be  written beside a word.
  2. Other pieces of information which are used to explain a word include: 

Pl =  Plural

C =  Countable

U = Uncountable 

Syn = Synonym

Ant = Antonym

Idm = Idiom 

Fig = Figurative language 

Tech = technical usage 

Opp = opposite 

PHRV = Phrasal verb

Sth=  Something

A dictionary is a book or electronic tool that provides definitions and meanings of words, as well as their pronunciation, spelling, and usage. It is an essential tool for anyone learning a new language or trying to improve their vocabulary.

Here are some examples of how to use a dictionary:

  1. To find the meaning of a word: Let’s say you come across the word “obnoxious” in a book and you’re not sure what it means. You can use a dictionary to look up the word and find its meaning, which is “extremely unpleasant or offensive.”
  2. To check the spelling of a word: If you’re not sure how to spell a word, you can look it up in a dictionary to find the correct spelling. For example, if you’re not sure if it’s “accommodate” or “acommodate,” a dictionary will show you that the correct spelling is with two “c’s” and two “m’s.”
  3. To learn the pronunciation of a word: Some words can be tricky to pronounce, especially if they are borrowed from another language. A dictionary can help you learn the correct pronunciation of a word. For example, if you’re not sure how to pronounce “quinoa,” a dictionary will show you that it’s pronounced “KEEN-wah.”
  4. To find synonyms and antonyms: Dictionaries often provide synonyms (words that have the same or similar meanings) and antonyms (words that have opposite meanings) for a given word. For example, if you’re looking for a synonym for “happy,” a dictionary might suggest “joyful” or “pleased,” while an antonym could be “sad” or “miserable.”
  5. To understand idiomatic expressions: Dictionaries can also help you understand idiomatic expressions, which are phrases that cannot be translated literally. For example, the expression “break a leg” means “good luck” in the theater world, and a dictionary can help you understand the meaning behind the phrase.

Grammar: Rules of Concord 

Content:

Concord is the agreement of the subject with the verb in a sentence 

Grammar is the set of rules that govern the structure and use of language. One important aspect of grammar is the rules of concord, also known as subject-verb agreement. This refers to the fact that the verb in a sentence must agree with its subject in number (singular or plural).

Here are some examples of the rules of concord:

  1. If the subject is singular, the verb must also be singular. For example: “The dog barks” (not “The dog bark”).
  2. If the subject is plural, the verb must also be plural. For example: “The dogs bark” (not “The dogs barks”).
  3. If the subject is a collective noun, the verb can be either singular or plural, depending on the context. For example: “The team wins the game” (singular verb) and “The team celebrate their victory” (plural verb).
  4. When a subject is joined by “and,” the verb is plural. For example: “John and Mary are going to the movies” (not “John and Mary is going to the movies”).
  5. When a subject is joined by “or” or “nor,” the verb agrees with the closest subject. For example: “Neither the cat nor the dog is allowed on the couch” and “Either the cat or the dogs are making noise.”
  6. When a subject is a singular noun that ends in “s,” the verb can be either singular or plural. For example: “Mathematics is my favorite subject” (singular verb) and “Mathematics are difficult for some students” (plural verb).
  7. When a subject is a collective noun that is considered as a single entity, the verb is singular. For example: “The committee meets once a month” (not “The committee meet once a month”).

It’s important to understand and follow the rules of concord in order to write and speak in correct English. Incorrect concord can make sentences difficult to understand and can affect the overall meaning of a sentence or paragraph.

Rules 

  1. When the subject is in the third person and singular, the verb in the present takes ‘s’ or ‘-es’ e.g. Monica listens attentively. 
  2. When the subject is in the first person, second person and third person plural number, the base form (i.e. plural verb is used.) e.g. 

We go to church every Sunday,

You brush your teeth every morning.

They/the children make a lot of noise in school. 

  1. In a noun phrase, the verb must agree with the head word i.e. main word e.g. 

One of my students has travelled abroad.

Everyone of the pupils was rewarded. 

  1. Two or more singular nouns, connected by ‘and’ expressing the same person/idea/thing must take a singular verb. E.g. 

Rice and beans is my best food.

The long and short of the matter is that we must work

My friend and teacher has made my dream come true.

  1. Two or more nouns connected by ‘and’ but referring to different things must go with a plural verb. 

My friend and my brother have arrived.

  1. A group of words starting with ‘each’ or ‘every’, ‘either’ or ‘neither’ should take a singular verb. 

Every man and woman has his own destiny. 

Each student was asked to pay some fee. 

Neither Tolu nor Teni pays attention to instructions. 

Either Tiler or Tony has done the needful. 

  1. If one of the two nouns connected by ‘nor’, ‘or’ is plural, or differ in person, the verb agrees with the closest noun to the verb in a sentence. 

Either Temi or her sisters are interested in novels. 

Neither the Principal nor the teachers have come to school.

Either my brother or I am travelling next week. 

Neither you nor Victoria has paid the required due. 

  1. Indefinite pronouns and nouns ending with ‘s’ but singular in meaning must take singular verbs. 

Everybody is here. Everything is all right.

Everyone has spoken. Nothing has happened.

Politics is a dirty game in Nigeria.

The news is broadcast at 6pm.

Comprehension: Bullying (pg 84, Countdown English)

Content 

This is a comprehension passage on bullying. It explains how it is done amongst children and the behaviour of children who are bullied. This will also help you to know whether you are involved in it. 

Bullying is a problem that affects many young people today. It can take many forms, including physical bullying, verbal bullying, and cyberbullying. Physical bullying involves using force or violence to hurt or intimidate someone, while verbal bullying involves using hurtful words or insults to make someone feel bad. Cyberbullying is a form of bullying that takes place online, often through social media or messaging apps.

Bullying can have a serious impact on the lives of those who experience it. It can lead to low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, and even suicide. Many young people who experience bullying may feel helpless and alone, not knowing where to turn for help.

Fortunately, there are things that can be done to prevent bullying and support those who have experienced it. Schools and communities can work together to create safe environments where bullying is not tolerated. Parents and teachers can teach children about empathy and kindness, and encourage them to stand up for others who are being bullied.

If you or someone you know is being bullied, it’s important to speak up and seek help. Talk to a trusted adult, such as a teacher, counselor, or parent, who can provide support and guidance. Remember that bullying is never okay, and that everyone has the right to feel safe and respected.

In conclusion, bullying is a serious problem that affects many young people today. It can have a negative impact on the lives of those who experience it, but there are things that can be done to prevent bullying and support those who have been affected by it. By working together as a community, we can create safe and welcoming environments where everyone feels valued and respected
